Class 'myClassName' already exists in package 'myPackageName'

Question

I suddenly started facing a strange issue while working on my Grails application using IntelliJ. I have different domain classes and some other classes under src/groovy. When I open a class file to make some changes, I get an error that this class already exists in package which I don't have. I tried to rename the class using refactor but after that I still get the same error.

Can anybody suggest what's wrong here or if I did something wrong?

Now, Even I create a new Domain Class, Service or Grails Job for the very first time, I get this error — Bilal Ahmed Yaseen, Dec 03 '14 at 07:21

Try to "Clear" you project and build again.

You mean `grails clean`? – tim_yates Jun 19 '14 at 08:20

I have cleaned my application by 'grails clean' but for the time being error dis-appears but when I try to edit or even open that file, this error occurs again – Bilal Ahmed Yaseen Jun 19 '14 at 08:50
